Carrying a souvenir, as originally intended, I visited my sister-in-law.

Unlike yesterday, I was well prepared except for a haircut, and my sister-in-law told me that I might visit, so I was able to get there through the face without being particularly surprised.

"Welcome home, Charles. I thought you'd come."

That's how she greets me with a gentle smile.

"I'm sorry I couldn't say hello yesterday."

I lowered my head deeply.

"I can't help it. Charles must have been tired on a long journey."

Looking down a little, there was Claudia, my lovely niece, who appeared a little bit in the conversation with her sister-in-law yesterday, much bigger than the last time I saw her.

Welcome home, uncle.

Like her stepsister, Claudia, her only daughter, seemed to think that this was the place where I should come back, and instead of "Welcome", she would say "Welcome home."

"Oh, I'm home. Dear"

Bend your gaze to her and gently stroke her head.

Claudia thins her eyes and accepts it in a pleasant way.

"The hair (gushi) is getting longer, but is it being stretched?

Claudia asks when she sees my hair, which has changed a lot since I met her before.

She's right, my hair is quite long and I can't help it if I don't tie it up.

"No, I'm just not cutting myself. I plan to cut my hair in the near future."

"Really? I think my uncle with long hair is also lovely."

"Thank you, Dear. But I'm going to be working here from now on. I have to be careful with my tastes."

"Do you work in this country?

Claudia asks back incredible words to get out of my mouth.

"Oh, that's right. I'll talk about it later."

Instead of standing up like this, let's take it easy after we calm down.

Before that, I have something to do.

"I'm sorry, Deer."

Yes, I decided to start by apologizing.

"I really came home in a hurry this time, so I couldn't prepare any souvenirs."

Sometimes I travel around various countries, and I always have to prepare handmade souvenirs, but this time it was a hasty journey home for rabbits and horns.

I didn't want to carry any extra luggage, and even went straight home (Bladia).

It was hard for me to come home for that reason, but I had to give up my souvenirs.

Her response to my words is as follows.

"No, I got the best souvenir my uncle has ever given me. There is nothing more wonderful for me. Welcome home again, Uncle Charles."

"Dear....!

I said nothing.

This is the word of my niece, who is not yet ten years old.

Anything will be too firm.

Sister-in-law

That's how I talk to Claudia's mother, her stepsister.

"At this age, Dia has grown into a fine lady, no matter where she goes. I can only say that this is a gift of your parents' education."

Yes, it is.

My sister-in-law nods to me.

"Dear, we've grown into a real daughter."

"No, I'm just nowhere to go and I'm always bothering my mother."

"That's not true. When I was as old as Deer, I never stood back and said such a special word. Whatever you say yourself, you really were a brash kid of your age."

"I see. I first met Charles about eight years ago."

My sister-in-law starts talking nostalgically.

"You were a really naughty boy when we met."

"As long as you're ashamed. Ah, I'm very sorry to have done this near you, but this is a souvenir."

I handed my sister-in-law a still warm paper bag, as if I remembered.

"Thank you, Charles. You bought it at your usual bakery. It's a corner, so why don't you join me for tea while it's warm?"

That's how my sister-in-law prepares tea.

Wash your hands, both of you.

In the meantime, tell Claudia and I to hand wash.

When I finished washing my hands, I had just brewed the bread and stepsister that I bought on the table, and I had prepared a black tea to give you white hot air.
